trans; across, beyond, through//to transfer, to transform, to transcend, to translate

tectonics;
in architecture: the science of construction, techniques of material assembly
in geology: the structure of the Earth's crust, its processes and evolution through time
in philosophy: tectonics of the person, as described by Ortega y Gasset, refers to the internal logics that shape how we perceive the environment

Transtectonics material experiments moving seamlessly across these meanings — translating them back into architecture
